The '''Tip Network'''<ref> | The '''Tip Network'''<ref>"''In some galaxies, you'll find TVs showing the Tip Network that can help explain how to perform certain moves or advance through a tough area. If you need a hint, try talking to the TV to see what it has to show you.''" - ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' instruction booklet, page 21.</ref> is a channel viewed on TV screens in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The TVs are mounted on a green-and-yellow [[sign]]-like post. They provide helpful tips for the player for upcoming obstacles or challenges that lie ahead. [[Mario]] needs to stand in front of a TV to activate it. The Tip Network shows a quick demonstration of how to surpass a difficult part of the [[galaxy]]. Unlike the [[Cosmic Spirit]], it does not degrade the [[Power Star]] to a [[Bronze Star]]. The Tip Network plays a similar role to the [[hint movies]] in [[Peach's Castle]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', except that it does not cost the player anything. If the player plays as [[Luigi]], the TVs do not appear. | ||
